Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C., October - To
satisfy the growing demand for high-density server platforms, ABIT Computer
Corporation has developed two new server boards that target 1-U rack mount
systems: the SI-1N and SI-1Na. Both sever boards support the IntelĂ’ Pentium 4
processor and are based on the Intel 845GL chipset platform that provides
exceptional computational processing performance and I/O for entry-level
servers. In addition, the support of integrated graphics on the chipset
contributes a significant cost advantage.
ABIT SI-1N and SI-1Na server boards feature solution-in-mind design architecture
that allows for quick time-to-market for both system integrators and solution
providers. Not only are the boards configured to provide efficient user workload
processing, but are also thoughtfully designed to allow for versatile final
system implementations through their support of internal I/O pin headers for
disk-on-modules, Smart Card readers or LCD module connections.
The SI-1N, configured with 4-channel IDE RAID, is positioned to provide a truly
non-blocking storage I/O and data protection mechanism to entry-level
network-attached storage (NAS) appliances. In addition, the SI-1N's support of
dual gigabit Ethernet LANs with fail-over and load-balancing capability creates
an unprecedented value to entry-level storage appliances.
With the SI-1Na, ABIT aims to provide a cost-effective platform for 1-U rack
mount VPN/security appliances. To efficiently service the target applications,
the SI-1Na implements two performance Intel 82550EY Ethernet LAN controllers
with integrated 3DES IPSec encryption engine and Alert-On-LAN functionality. A
VPN/security appliance built using the SI-1Na can immediately benefit from the
advanced security and manageability features and eliminate additional cost for
separate add-on devices.
Designed with target applications in mind, the SI-1N and SI-1Na provide system
integrators and solution providers the optimal platforms to base feature-rich
system solutions and allow for quick time-to-market.
